Atletico Rafaela vs Sarmiento: Preview and Predictions

Atletico Rafaela have gone the last two games without a victory and are too far away now to claim a play-off place being a huge 9 points behind 11th position which would have seen them in contention.

A win a few weeks ago over Godoy Cruz by a 2-0 score line is the clubs only win over in their last five games. At home in Rafaela they are waiting on their first win in a month and it’s been two games now without a win there. Still they haven’t been too easy to beat at home where from 14 games they have 5 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses.

Sarmiento Junin have had a disaster of a season down in 27th place. They have lost 16 of their 29 games played and have lost 4 of their last 5 games. Their sole win in that run coming against Defensia y Justicia.

Away from home the club have the 3rd worst record where they have gained just 9 points from a possible 42. They have 9 losses from 14 matches and have won just twice on the road all season.

Atletico Rafaela vs Sarmiento Junin: Prediction
